A blog about brews, pubs and travel

It’s time for silly hats again, ladies and gentlemen. The brave Bavarians of the Oktoberfest have their web shop open for this year’s tacky souvenirs.

Glasses, steins and t-shirts, of course, but there are tons of other stuff, too. Most of it is probably easier to sell to people on the spot after they’ve had their fill of roasted pork and 2-liter glasses of Löwenbrau, I find it quite easy to resist the urge to order anything.

They even have a Nintendo DS game this year, which comes in 6 languages., which means the kids can compete in carrying beer glasses. Every home should have one.

Will I be going? No. Never.

Did I mention that the hat comes with a multicolored light in the feather?
